Microsoft won't stop me from continuing to not use Windows

Of course, but that's not the point. There should be a sane default, and there isn't one

Golang puts shit specifically in $HOME/go. Not even .go. Just plain go.

Why is it so difficult to follow industry standards

These days it's Pro. The word lost all meaning entirely. In the vast majority of products that are sold with this tag, it's just a slightly better version of an enshittified product

All of these are a shit stain from the same asshole of corporate USA

That's a loaded list. I'm very excited about the changes to plugins. Those have always felt a little unfinished, and specifically when it came to controller bindings, it was a pain in the ass. The usage of SDL should improve that massively

How many more of these will it take, until people start looking for alternatives

I don't recall asking for your input

Valve is in a very unique position here. They're clearly not making very much money on the Deck itself, and that's okay, because they both got an endless library of games behind them, and on top of that, they're actively putting money back into the ecosystem of developers, to further utilize what people already have. Historically, that's never been the case with any console, let alone a handheld, because every one of them either had bespoke architecture, or only ran software that was specifically designed for that machine

Well, it ended up a pretty solid console, after all. It's only real downside is the horrible performance. When the Switch "2" comes out, my only wish for it is to not have a SoC that's already a year outdated, at the time of release

I used to really enjoy Kings Coast. Great value for the money, solid quality, and the way they roast coffee makes the beans have excellent subtle flavor notes, which I really appreciated.

Unfortunately if you're not in the US or Canada, you're out of luck, because in 2021 they stopped shipping internationally completely

Out of everything i play, the only game holding me back is Destiny 2, which was explicitly refused support for.

Everything else works phenomenally well, and in some rare cases, performs a lot better.

The only struggle point is heavily modded games with tools that assume i’m doing this on windows, but times are changing too

Super excited about these. 4 of the games I had issues with got fixes

As long as this shit continues to happen, we will never have good competition in this market

Well, we won't know until people try this out, and make modifications to what's needed, but the creator himself says that this mod is essentially pointless, as no homebrew uses this much ram, and most definitely no games do. This is a really awesome proof of concept though

While not wrong, let's not pretend that their friends across the ocean aren't doing the exact same thing. Practically everything Microsoft have acquired has either been shutdown, or crippled to the point where it's unrecognizable

According to the person who developed this, doesn't seem like it. From quick research, it does appear that 128mb mods were somewhat common, through installing an extra chip, and modifying the software as you mentioned, but this is new

I'll be real with y'all, a 50$ 4 hour tech demo just doesn't appeal to me, especially in a world where the indie market is absolutely booming with phenomenal titles.

Sure, the first one was nice, but I never felt like I was so impressed by it, that i'd do it again.

I always find it interesting, when people claim they don't like Arch, because it breaks, supposedly.

Out of genuine curiosity, what did you find, that kept breaking, that wasn't user error, and wasn't easily reparable?
